The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 579

"You're actually one of Nick's men! Did you also plan to be caught by his men earlier?"

Mango was in disbelief.

Nathaniel held her hand tightly and said, "Calm down. Darling, it's all over, right?"

She suddenly felt like a fool.

She had always kept her guard up. However, she didn't expect to be deceived.

"I'm too stupid."

Self-blame welled up in her chest.

Nathaniel felt sorry for her and he replied, "It's not your fault. Nick studied psychology in the past. Therefore, he knows how to strike at your weaknesses and read your mind. That's what enabled him and Hadley to work with each other seamlessly. No one discovered their scheme, so don't feel bad about it."

"You're just saying that to comfort me."

Mango was a little annoyed.

Nathaniel was stunned for a moment before he said with a smile, "Yes, I'm comforting you. Are you listening?"

Mango almost burst out in laughter.

"You're gonna spoil me if you keep going like this."

"It's okay. From now on, the most important task for me is to spoil you rotten."

Mango couldn't stand his overwhelming sweet talk anymore.

"There are so many people here. Stop it."

"Did you guys hearthat?"

Nathaniel shouted at the top of his lungs, and all the people in the living room shook their heads simultaneously.

Of course, they didn't hear a thing. They didn't want to lose their jobs.

Meanwhile, Mango flushed scarlet and she couldn't help but hide away from everyone's sight.

What the hell.

The previously serious atmosphere had turned into a big romantic scene.

Honestly, she was really not used to it.

Meanwhile, Hadley was also stunned.

Was this really the aloof man he knew?

Or had he mistaken Nathaniel for someone else?

Just then, Thomas kicked him hard when he saw Hadley spacing out.

"What are you looking at? Confess."

Only then did Hadley come to his senses, and he said, "Yes, it was indeed Nick who arranged for me to seek out Mrs. Ye at the amusement park. Later, I pretended to be watched by his men and was even captured by them. In fact, everything that happened that day was all arranged by us. The purpose was to make Mrs. Ye to ease her doubts about me so that we'll be able to get the information we want."

"What do you guys want? Didn't you say that you were going to take me to Boston?"

Mango finally realized that she had been deceived by them all this time.

Then, Hadley replied in a guilty tone, "Boston didn't know that I did this. Nick promised me that as long as I get Mrs. Ye to meet Boston and get the things he wanted, he would give me some money and even arrange for me to go abroad."

"Boston treated you well over the years, am I right?"

Nathaniel voiced out suddenly.

Hearing this, Hadley lowered his head and said, "I owe a gambling debt."

At this point, Mango knew that he was helpless, and she didn't want to hear anymore excuse from him. If a person were to be tainted by either drugs and gambling, his life would be over.

After she found out that she had been tricked by Hadley, she already figured out the subsequent chain of events.

"So you promised to go to A City with me, but you knocked me out and brought me to this villa just to get Boston to meet me here?"

"Yes! Unfortunately, Boston was not at home, and I couldn't get in touch with him. Nick then suggested that we let you go to A City. Perhaps we would achieve a different result."

Nathaniel's gaze turned even colder after hearing this.

"What do you mean by that?"

In fact, Mango had already guessed what was going on. However, she did not dare to ask too much in front of Nathaniel. She was afraid that Nathaniel would kill Hadley.

However, Hadley didn't understand her hint and continued in a low voice, "Mr. Ye asked me to find some kind of experimental medicine and administer it to you so that you would have the strength to rush to A City. As long as you arrive in A City and was caught by Jigsaw Coon, then they would have the leverage to threaten Nathaniel to hand over the thing he asked for. Furthermore, Nathaniel did hand it over to save you, didn't he?"

"What is it?"

Mango was very surprised.

She looked at Nathaniel. How could he hand over such an important thing to those evil people for her?

"Nathan!"

"Don't listen to his nonsense."

Nathaniel comforted Mango for a moment and before he looked at Hadley coldly.

"Where did that medicine come from?"

"The doctor made it himself."

"Are you still refusing to tell the truth?"

Seeing his stubbornness, Thomas immediately stabbed him in the thigh.

"Ah!"

Hadley wailed mournfully and he broke out in a cold sweat instantly.

It was the first time that Mango had witnessed Nathaniel's merciless actions. He seemed to not care about a single thing, but the looming fury he had almost made people tremble with fear.

She had no doubt that Thomas did this under Nathaniel's instructions.

Meanwhile, Nathaniel did not seem to care for the pain that Hadley was suffering. Instead, he continued to peel the grapes for Mango as if no one else was present, and he did so very meticulously.

After that, Thomas directly stepped the wound on Hadley's thigh.

"Ah!"

Then, Hadley screamed in pain, and he almost fainted. Next, Thomas said, "If you faint, I'll cut off your leg and feed it to the dogs."

"How dare you!"

Hadley was filled with rage, but Thomas brushed it off.

"What is it? Do you think you can defeat me?"

On the other hand, Hadley was obviously triggered by his words.

He clenched his teeth and said, "The medicine was given by Nick! Since he's your brother, it seems that you're venting your anger at me because you can't bear to hurt him. Nathaniel, you are a coward!"

Hearing this, Nathaniel paused for a moment, while Mango was stunned.

"Nick gave you the medicine?"
